By managing to research several film posters I have then
prepared myself to first produce my film posters. The programme that I have
used to produce my film poster is called adobe Photoshop. The reason why I have
used Photoshop as a recommendable programme to produce my film poster is
because its graphical content is very creative to use. It is also simple to use
for beginners and also most of its advanced tools are very spectacular of
structuring any form of context such as newspaper, posters, covers ect.
I have then realised that in order to understand or to
become familiarise of being creative of producing posters I have decided to at
least produce two film posters and indicate each stage of its production
process.
1st poster
For producing my first poster I first manage to insert an
image of a prefect badge in which I took a picture of a prefect badge and scanned
it on my computer. Therefore by opening up Photoshop I have dragged the image
onto the clipboard.
I then filter the image
into many graphical fonts to present an image that seems very appealing. I then
continued to select many fonts however I have managed to choose a font in which
decorates the whole image with the use of red and white that seems very artistic
and very thriller
Look.
As you can see the colour font manages to present the red as
a bloodier look. Therefore I have managed to include the date realises of the
short film on the badge and also include the ‘perfect’ name on the badge above
the prefect in which of course indicates the name of the film
Afterwards, I have included the specific quote which
actually allows the film to present to the audience as a recommendable film to
be watched, such as ‘absolutely amazing’. Underneath the quote I have included
5 stars which indicates how the film is consider to be amazing and magnificent.
In addition I have managed to include a specific extract from the mayor of
London Boris Johnson presenting how he has watched the film to actually attempt
to increase the films popularity. Finally I further included the production companies
name on the top left corner and also include the age certificate in which I
have manage to receive at Google images in which I have cropped out into a
small shape on the bottom right corner.
Final result
2nd poster
After producing the first poster I then continued of
producing my second poster of the film. As you can see I have still used the
same programme in which I first inserted a photography that I have taken of a
school uniform.
I then duplicated the image and filtered into a more sharpen
look. I created a badge and manage to position it on the right spot where it
presents a clear shot of where I can include the name of the film ‘perfect
prefect’.
Afterwards I then included two rectangle shapes
in which I inserted the production company and the date of the film release
Finally I changed the colour font from yellow to white to
make the poster seem very clear and easy to read also I have manage to include
specific quotes which at least endorse the film poster alongside including the
5 stars underneath the quote to present the quality and the review of the
time.Futhermore I have managed to include the age certificate of the film which
is a 12A which is a compulsory need to present how audiences must be a certain
age in order to watch the film.
Final result
Final decision
After producing two film posters,
It is compulsory for me to only choose one main poster.Threrefore my decision
of promoting a poster out of the two would be the first poster. This is because
the first poster seems very professional in the terms of the colour font of red
and white which both are used perfectly to present a more thriller and
authentic look. Most importantly I have managed to include a persuasive technique
by including a quote from an extract that provides a satisfied feedback of the film
alongside including the 5 star rating and a rhetorical device.
By researching many film posters I
understand that, The visualisation of a film poster must be very professional
and something that encourages you to watch the film, many films that I have
researched uses a lot of images and screenshots of the film. I feel that by
including many specific screenshots of the film can give away the possession
and also can give away the scenes that the audience will expect, therefore by
using quotes from people who watched the film can be a back up plan instead of
including screenshots of the film. In comparison, the 2nd poster
seemed very basic however the background image of the uniform seems very
creative in the terms of the filter used to present as a more bizarre and
blurry look. According to making a decision out of the two I believe that the 2nd
poster just doesn’t seem very appealing, and I believe that the colour used
which are red and white doesn’t match the image of the poster of how it nailed
to match in the first.
Overall by choosing the first poster presents
something of how I don’t want to include devices in film poster that are mostly
known such as the same screenshots being included and also the same graphical
devices being used, am certain of how I want to present something that Is new
to all independent films therefore by producing my first film poster presents
only two colour font which are matched perfectly and can still be creative at
some point. Managing to include evident quotes to backup of using screenshots
is a beneficial option of not giving away any possession of including
screenshots of the film. The image was simply easy to structure and to position
the devices correctly in the film poster such as the date release, age
crtifcate, rhetorical device and the prefect badge further upgraded the looks
of the film poster
The most successul part of your film is the image of the school prefect badge. The poster links in well with your narratie so the audience know what to expect when they watch the film. A crtisism is that you did not include a title block. It could of helped make your film look more proffessional
